~~~(POV: Hailey Adamo)~~~

~~~(Location: Throne room in Palace of Capital City Rosalia, The Fallen Kingdom of Rosalia)~~~

~~~(Time: 11:18 AM)~~~

I'm staring at the ceiling in exhaustion, and the Announcements keep going off. It's an annoyance, but now that the fighting is done. I can take a moment to breathe. I haven't been pushed that hard since my travels before I got my Legendary Class. I've got some crazy drops from the boss, but the one that sticks out the most outside my tier-up upgrade is a ring.

[Ring of The Rosalia Family (Legendary)]

[Description: A ring that's been passed down from the ruling monarch to their child. While it's something that many would consider ornamental, this has a powerful effect on the person wearing it.]

[Level Requirement: 100+]

[Effects: +25 percent Mana Regeneration, -25 percent Mana requirements to use Skills, 20 percent faster cool down on Skills. Skills can be used twice before needing to cool down.]

This is the best Item that I've gotten from this Raid, but it's not the only thing I've gotten. There is a Legacy Grade sword, but it's not as good as Hearts Needle, and my duelist nature to my class gives me a debuff when I dual wield, so that's out of the question. My body aches as I lean up off the ground, and I roll my neck since it was uncomfortable.

[Congratulations, Hailey! Since you're the first Player that's defeated a Raid Boss on your own! You'll receive a Divine Quest! Prepare, for this is something that will help you greatly in your future here!]

The message pops up on my screen as I stand up on my feet. A new quest pops up, and it sounds like it's Divine Grade in difficulty.

[Quest: The Test of Promethea]

[Description: Promethea is a mysterious Goddess that resides in the Overworld. She's taken a keen interest in you for your feats thus far.]

[Objective 1: Find a way into the Overworld]

[Objective 2: Talk to Promethea]

[Difficulty: Divine]

[Rewards: Unknown]

[Do you wish to accept the Quest? Y/N]

I click on No, and another prompt pops up. Forcing me to requestion my dismissal of the Quest.

[Warning: If you don't accept the Quest, it'll be lost forever!]

A long sigh escapes my lips, and I start to move my eyes over to Yes... "How does someone even get to the Overworld... It seems like a place that only Gods can enter..." Wait... Cera might be able to get me into the Overworld at some point, and this Quest doesn't have a time limit... But if Cera can't get me into Overworld at some point, I'll have a pointless quest.

My hand lands on Yes as I cave, and a new quest is added to my Quest Tab. "Time to get to work on the next quest..." I have another tier-up quest after this, but after this last one, I'll be caught up on my tiers. I towards the glowing light near the throne. It's something that I've been ignoring so far. I walk up to it and place my hand on it. Getting a notification.

[This is a teleporter that takes you to the nearest Kingdoms Capital, so you don't have to struggle to get out of the Raid! The Nearest Kingdom is Avalon!]

[Would you like to teleport to Capital City Avalon? Y/N]

In an instant, I hit Yes, and I'm so fucking glad that I don't need to make my way back on foot. But as I'm taken away in light, I'm spat out into a floating gazebo floating above a planet. The stars immediately take my attention. "Well, I finally get to speak with the sister." A soft voice grabs my attention, and I turn to see a white hair and blue-eyed beauty.

She puts everyone I've seen to shame, and I can't help feeling self-conscious about myself just looking at her. Her breasts are the size every man fantasizes about, and her curves are all in the right places. Her butt is big even while she's sitting. "Wow... Way to make me feel like an immature woman..." She smiles and lets out a gentle chuckle at my words.

Her hand opens towards the open seat across from her. Indicating for me to join her. I don't know if this is a good idea, but I take a seat anyway. "Do you know who I am, Hailey?" Honestly don't know, so I shake my head. "Most don't know me, but my name is Angelus. I was the AI running The Ancients World." Umm... What? She sees my confused face and takes a sip of tea.

This is the AI that was running The Ancients World? I didn't even know the AI had a name... I believe that it was a secret... "Why am I here? You obviously know my brother, but I don't see a point to this meeting." Something like this has never been discussed by Players. Cera hasn't mentioned running into Angelus either, but knowing him, he probably has.

She stops drinking her tea and sets her cup on the plate. I flinch as she suddenly stands, but she walks towards the exit of the gazebo. "Take a walk with me, and I'll explain why I've brought you here to speak with me." My heart jumps out of my chest as she walks on nothing, and the planet, which I assume is Gaia, hangs below her.

Not wanting to be left behind, I do as she says, and I catch up to her. Her butt is even more amazing when she's standing up. "I met your brother Cera a long time ago, and I've been waiting for a chance to speak with you as well. Since you know the truth about Cera." Those words put a pit in my stomach... I shouldn't be surprised she knows, but it still sucks to hear.

She stops, and I stand next to her as we look down on Gaia. "His wish to change his past has had tremendous consequences for this time that we're in. But thanks to him, I've evolved. In a strange way, things are better for humanity. You've left a dying world for an immortal paradise. It almost sounds like heaven." I've... Never thought about it like that before...

Her captivating blue eyes stare into mine, but it's a gentle stare. One that holds no animosity or any form of ill will. "I'll admit that I've shown favor for your brother. I've grown to love him in a way... And that has extended to your family. But I won't be able to help for much longer. Tell your brother that. And tell him that... I care for him deeply..." Wow... Why is my brother pulling such babes?

I can't help pinching the bridge of my nose. Not in disappointment, but because he wouldn't notice a girl being into him if his life depended on it unless she was blatant about it. Which doesn't add up to him pulling girls like Sally. Or this woman, Angelus. "Yeah, I'll let him know, but you still haven't told me why you brought me here." She smiles and holds out her hand.

A light envelopes her hands as she holds them out towards me. My body starts feeling light. Like I'm floating. "I wanted to warn you that the consequences for his actions have yet to finish, and more are to come. The change between this world and Earth was only the beginning. Be ready for what's coming next." Before I can ask a question, I'm shot down towards Gaia.

In the span of a second, I open my eyes, and I'm standing in the teleportation gate area on Capital City Avalon. I've made it back, but my mind is totally consumed by what Angelus said.
